Breathing in the Garden Star Song for Writing Trip to Siwa

Hello All, and especially to the participants of the Creative Writing retreat to Siwa :) I hope you are all good. Check this beautiful song which has some fitting lyrics for our Siwa trip :) especially that it (our trip) is entitled: Breathing in the Garden Star :)

I came upon a child of GodHe was walking along the roadAnd I asked him where are you goingAnd this he told meI'm going on down to Yasgur's farm *I'm going to join in a rock 'n' roll bandI'm going to camp out on the landI'm going to try an' get my soul free

We are stardustWe are goldenAnd we've got to get ourselvesBack to the garden

Then can I walk beside youI have come here to lose the smogAnd I feel to be a cog in something turningWell maybe it is just the time of yearOr maybe it's the time of manI don't know who I amBut you know life is for learning

We are stardustWe are goldenAnd we've got to get ourselvesBack to the garden

By the time we got to WoodstockWe were half a million strongAnd everywhere there was song and celebrationAnd I dreamed I saw the bombersRiding shotgun in the skyAnd they were turning into butterfliesAbove our nation

We are stardustBillion year old carbonWe are goldenCaught in the devil's bargainAnd we've got to get ourselvesback to the garden
